Ton for Fatsam off 136 balls...

Well done chap - it's always the sign of a good player when he scores more quickly than his team-mates. Averaging 50 in FC Cricket at a s/r of 67 (presuming this counts as FC?).

Must do...

Yep, is there anyone else in FC cricket in England with those stats at his age? Hope he doesn't get shunted down the list of prospects as a result of the JAMODI garbage which if you look at his stats, wasn't his main suit anyway.

Oh, and James Franklin 0-75 off 18. Loser.

by LeFromage Mon 02 Mar 2009, 00:50

I like James Franklin. Always thought he was a handy bowler.

Career's been destroyed by injuries, though. No idea what kind of filth he's sending down these days.

by JKLever Mon 02 Mar 2009, 00:53

Franklins a mentalist, I'd bet on it.

Fatsams gawn.

by LeFromage Mon 02 Mar 2009, 00:53

Fat Sam: GAWN (for a pie, probably)

by JKLever Mon 02 Mar 2009, 10:22

Eng 493-5d

NZ 22-1

Trott got a ton too, Mark Davies picking up an early wicket

by Chivalry Augustus Mon 02 Mar 2009, 11:42

Samit's average goes up to 49.62 after his knock; next best in the Lions' team is Moores' 42.59. Interesting that all the batsmen have got their nice, healthy looking 40 averages in FC Cricket with only one bothering to get near to 50. The Lions' team seems to have a lot in common with the real England team - we've even got ourselves an Ian Bell-like figure in Luke Wright who gets in the side no matter what. Thankfully, the fat quota is up on the real England side. Fat cricketers are real cricketers!

Dello should sticky this, much more meaningful than the pap in Bridgetown!

by JKLever Mon 02 Mar 2009, 22:44

NZ A 100-1

Haven't got any bowlers here either.

Davies 1-21 off 11 the best.

by LeFromage Mon 02 Mar 2009, 22:45

NZ 100/1. Jay Meow 51*

R. Joseph: 8 overs, 1 maiden, 45 runs, 0 wickets.

TAYPOC.

by Eric Air Emu Mon 02 Mar 2009, 23:10

Jay Meow- what a name. I'd have a lot more time for this forum's ubermeister if he was called Jay Meow.

by LeFromage Mon 02 Mar 2009, 23:22

He's not really called Jay Meow.

It's bog-standard crap-hat Jamie How.

by PeterCS Mon 02 Mar 2009, 23:24

He don't pussyfoot around, our Jay. Not never no-how.

I'm so dissappointed. Not only does Jay Meow not exist but he's been replaced by Jamie How.

by LeFromage Mon 02 Mar 2009, 23:31

I know how you feel - the world seemed that little bit brighter back when we thought Jamie How didn't exist.

But he does. And the world is a dark place.

by PeterCS Mon 02 Mar 2009, 23:37

And one cat fewer in world cricket. That's the real tragedy.

by JKLever Tue 03 Mar 2009, 01:39

How gets a ton. 209-2 seems like another road - in NZ FFS...

I wonder if Trott is a relative of the great Harry Trott

From crocinfo....

he is related to Albert Trott, the former Australia batsman, though he is unsure exactly how

by PeterCS Tue 03 Mar 2009, 01:55

He doesn't hit the ball as hard. ...

by PeterCS Tue 03 Mar 2009, 01:57

Also crocko, this time on Harry Trott:

"[H] Trott, who had been in ill-health for some time before his death, was the elder brother of the late Albert Trott, who for many years played so brilliantly for Middlesex".

by horace Tue 03 Mar 2009, 02:01

that is great...how nice to see ability crossing the generations...hope he makes it as a test player

Shirley his time at Glamorgan would have straightened him out.

by JKLever Tue 03 Mar 2009, 11:48

Well these days he's a better bat than bowler. 83*

Only Mark Davies doing his prospects any good.

In the last few days our senior & lions sides have conceeded 1124 runs for the taking of 12 wickets Shocked
